Goal

🚨 Help Us Help Rose and Precious


Rose is only 18 years old—an exhausted teenage mum, blind in one eye, struggling to protect her boisterous one-year-old baby boy.

Her owner, who runs a small camp in the hills of Chiang Mai, has seen tourism collapse. He can no longer keep his camp open. The decision to sell his elephants is no longer a possibility—it is imminent.

A breeder has offered a large sum of money for Rose.
The breeder does not want her baby.

At the same time, a tourism camp in Chiang Mai city wants the baby—alone—to entertain tourists.

If Boon Lott’s Elephant Sanctuary does not act now, Mama Rose and her baby will be torn apart—possibly within days—and will never see each other again.

This separation is permanent. The trauma is irreversible.

We have a narrow window to intervene.
We have the power to keep this mother and child together—but only if we act immediately.
